("111" or the "Company") (NASDAQ: YI), a leading tech-enabled healthcare platform company committed to digitally connecting patients with medicine and healthcare services in China, today announced its unaudited financial results for the first quarter ended March 31, 2023.
First Quarter 2023 Highlights

(2) Non-GAAP income from operations represents income from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses.
Mr. Junling Liu, Co-Founder, Chairman, and Chief Executive Officer of 111, commented, "We are pleased to report another solid quarter as well as a positive operating results at Non-GAAP level. Net revenue increased by 23.9% year-over-year to RMB3.7 billion, marking the 19th consecutive quarter of year-over-year growth for 111 since the company's NASDAQ IPO. Our gross segment profit for the quarter increased by 22.7% year-over-year. As a result, loss from operation decreased to RMB22 million compared to RMB102 million in the same quarter of last year. Non-GAAP operating profit for the quarter turned positive as compared to a Non-GAAP loss from operations in the same quarter of last year, which partially benefited from the lifting of COVID-related restrictions since December last year."
Mr. Liu added, "In addition, we continued to enhance our operation efficiency and total operating expenses as a percentage of net revenues decreased to 7.0% in this quarter from 9.9% in the same quarter of last year. We expect this momentum to continue as we scale, and meanwhile we will continue to focus on delivering best services to our customers/patients."
"These results stem from our sustained, strategic endeavors. We have enhanced partnerships with upstream pharmaceutical partners. By directly working with 500+ pharmaceutical companies, we offer value-add services to numerous enterprises, debuted products like Sanofi's Allegra on our B2C platform, while our B2B platform's digital marketing tool, "Telescope," offers invaluable market insights. Our digital empowerment to downstream pharmacies provided them with cost-effective products and operational efficiency. By the end of Q1, we served more than 435,000 retail pharmacies, with our 1 Health program engaging approximately 20,000 drugstores. Meanwhile, our operational efficiency continues to improve with various cost saving initiatives, better corporate governance, and technology investments. We've notably cut fulfillment costs through optimizing our own and joint-venture warehouses, while our new advisory department, focused on customer-centric value creation, is refining product assortment and pricing strategies."
"We believe that our efforts to achieve margin expansion, as well as to optimize our cost and improve our organizational alignment, have delivered positive results. We will keep optimizing product assortment based on customer needs, reducing costs with direct sourcing, and improve our competitiveness through intelligent pricing.

Use of Non-GAAP Financial Measures
In evaluating the business, the Company considers and uses non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS, as supplemental measures to review and assess its operating performance. The Company defines non-GAAP income (loss) from operations as income (loss) from operations excluding share-based compensation expenses. The Company defines non-GAAP net income (loss) as net income (loss) excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax. The Company defines non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax. The Company defines non-GAAP loss per ADS as net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders per ADS excluding share-based compensation expenses, net of tax per ADS. The presentation of these non-GAAP financial measures is not intended to be considered in isolation or as a substitute for the financial information prepared and presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP.
The Company believes that non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS help identify underlying trends in its business that could otherwise be distorted by the effect of certain expenses that it includes in income (loss) from operations and net income (loss). Share-based compensation expenses is a non-cash expense that varies from period to period. As a result, management excludes the items from its internal operating forecasts and models. Management believes that the adjustments for share-based compensation expenses provide investors with a reasonable basis to measure the company's core operating performance, in a more meaningful comparison with the performance of other companies. The Company believes that non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, and non-GAAP loss per ADS provide useful information about its operating results, enhances the overall understanding of its past performance and future prospects and allow for greater visibility with respect to key metrics used by the management in their financial and operational decision-making.
The non-GAAP financial measures are not defined under U.S. GAAP and are not presented in accordance with U.S. GAAP. The non-GAAP financial measures have limitations as analytical tools. One of the key limitations of using non-GAAP income (loss) from operations, non-GAAP net income (loss), non-GAAP net loss attributable to ordinary shareholders, or non-GAAP loss per ADS is that it does not reflect all items of income and expense that affect the Company's operations. Further, the non-GAAP financial measures may differ from the non-GAAP information used by other companies, including peer companies, and therefore their comparability may be limited.
The Company compensates for these limitations by reconciling the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures, all of which should be considered when evaluating the Company's performance. The Company encourages you to review its financial information in its entirety and not rely on a single financial measure.
Reconciliation of the non-GAAP financial measures to the most comparable U.S. GAAP measures is included at the end of this press release.
